Blues coach Mike Yeo said Saturday that Alex Pietrangelo (undisclosed) has made some progress.

Yeo added that he wasn't ready to say if Pietrangelo would return Saunday night for the second half of the team's back-to-back set versus the Jets. At this point, consider Pietrangelo questionable for tomorrow's game and check back here before putting him back into your fantasy lineups. The 27-year-old blueliner has 23 points in 30 games this season.

Pietrangelo didn't play Sunday after he was hurt on a blocked shot Saturday. It's unclear how long he will be sidelined for at this time. Pietrangelo logs heavy minutes and there's a significant hole in the lineup of the Blues without him. He also has seven goals and 23 points in 30 games this season.

Pietrangelo will miss Sunday's game and then attempt to skate on Monday. He's a big part of the Blues' defense, so this injury is troubling on its own. However, it's particularly bad news for St. Louis after it was already revealed that Jaden Schwartz suffered a major ankle injury on Saturday that will sidelined him for a minimum of six weeks.

Pietrangelo scored a career-high 14 goals last season, which is pretty impressive. He also added 48 points in 80 games in 2016-17. He has the ability to put up 50-plus points this season.

Depth Charts

Paul Stastny notched a goal and an assist in a 6-1 win over Colorado on Thursday night.

Stastny had contributed only one goal and one helper in his previous seven outings, but it seems a visit from his former team was just what he needed to get back on track. He has recorded three goals and two assists in three games versus the Avalanche in 2017-18. He has 12 goals and 38 points in 56 contests this season.

Brayden Schenn scored a power play goal in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Dallas Stars.

Schenn finally got the Blues on the board at the 18:46 mark of the third period to cut the deficit to 2-1. Obviously, that's as close as the Blues would come to tying the game. The 26-year-old now has 24 goals and 55 points in 60 games this season. eight of his 24 goals have been scored on the man-advantage. Jaden Schwartz and Vladimir Tarasenko registered the assists on St. Louis' only goal.

Oskar Sundqvist will not play in Friday's game against the Dallas Stars.

Sundqvist missed Thursday's practice because of an illness, but he was on the ice for Friday's morning skate, which means he's a healthy scratch. He has no goals and three assists in 30 games this season. Chris Butler will join him in the press box.

Kyle Brodziak scored the Blues' only goal in a 4-1 loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday.

Brodziak opened the scoring 3:10 into the second period, but the Penguins scored four unanswered markers to claim the victory. Chris Thorburn and Scottie Upshall had assists on Brodziak's ninth goal of the season.

Patrik Berglund scored a power play goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Montreal Canadiens.

Berglund's goal at the 5:14 mark of the third period gave the Blues a 2-0 lead at the time, and they never looked back. He finished the night with four shots on goal and four hits in 13:32 of ice time. Berglund has now picked up a point in three of his last four games. He also managed to put his 10-game goal drought to bed. The 29-year-old has seven goals and 11 points in 28 games this season. Ivan Barbashev and Alex Steen also found the back of the net for St. Louis on Tuesday night.

Vladimir Sobotka netted the game-winning goal on Tuesday in a 3-0 win over Ottawa.

Sobotka had four shots on goal in the contest, as coaches have been on him to shoot more often "I'm trying," he said. "It's just something I need to work on, put more pucks on the net. It is what it is. I guess it makes me skate harder and play harder." Sobotka has nine goals and 23 points in 50 contests in 2017-18.

The surgery was performed by Dr. Bernard Bach. Fabbri suffered a torn ACL last February. He underwent surgery to repair the injury and was cleared to play in late July. Unfortunately for Fabbri, he re-injured himself during training camp. The Blues forward is done for the season.

Vladimir Tarasenko registered a pair of assists in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Nashville Predators on Tuesday night.

Tarasenko assisted on two Blues goals, from Alex Steen and Jaden Schwartz, in the 4-3 OT loss to Nashville Tuesday night. The Blues' third goal came from Jay Bouwmeester. Tarasenko now has 23 goals and 51 points in 59 games this season.

Alexander Steen notched a goal and a helper in Tuesday's 4-3 OT loss to Nashville.

Steen registered his 13th goal and 24th assist to give the Blues a 3-0 lead, but the Predators came from behind to claim the victory. Steen has been rolling offensively since the end of December and he has generated 17 points in his past 18 outings.

The Blues acquired Soshnikov from the Maple Leafs earlier this week, but he's currently sidelined with a lower-body injury. "I’ve heard a lot of really good things," Yeo said. "I think it’s going to be a really good move for our organization just in terms of his work ethic, his skating ability, his ability to play on both sides of the puck. I think that, talking to some people and hearing from some people in Toronto, they actually really liked him. Coaches liked him." Soshnikov has no points and a minus-2 rating in three games this season. He isn't worth adding in any fantasy format.

This was an incredibly different event, so the fact that the Blues defenseman managed to complete it in 46.610 seconds is pretty impressive.

Joel Edmundson will be re-examined in six weeks after he underwent surgery to repair a broken right forearm.

Edmundson was injured on a blocked shot Thursday night against Colorado. He leads the Blues with 125 blocks and he has a recorded 15 points in 56 games this season. Edmundson has been placed on injured reserve. He could be back just before the end of the regular season if his recovery goes well.

It took a while, but someone finally found the back of the net in this one. Gunnarsson scored the only goal of the game with less than six minutes remaining in regulation. He finished the game with a plus-1 rating, two penalty minutes, three shots on goal and three hits in 18:23 of ice time. He had been a healthy scratch in each of St. Louis' previous three games. Gunnarsson now has five goals and two assists in 43 games this season. He won't have any fantasy value going forward. Paul Stastny registered the assist on St. Louis' only goal.

Robert Bortuzzo will be a healthy scratch in Thursday's game against Colorado.

Bortuzzo has a goal and six assists in 51 games this season. This will be the second time in three games that he'll watch from the press box. Chris Thorburn will also be scratched against the Avalanche.

Interestingly enough, Dunn was expected to be a healthy scratch in this one. He ended up playing because Jay Bouwmeester, who was away from the team because his wife gave birth, didn't make it to Toronto in time for the game. Alexander Steen tied the game at one with less than one minute remaining in regulation before Dunn ended the overtime frame at the 1:43 mark of the period. Dunn has four goals and four assists in 40 games this season.

Bouwmeester is set to become the 186th player to reach that milestone and the eighth among active players. "It's kinda neat. It's another sign you're getting a little older," Bouwmeester said in reference to the milestone. "It's kind of like birthdays (where) after a certain point you don't want to know what number it is." Speaking of birthdays, Bouwmeester is 34-years-old so while he is getting up there in years, it would be shocking to see him stay in the league for another five or more seasons.

Jake Allen allowed two goals on 16 shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Dallas Stars.

Allen kept the Stars off the board in the opening frame, but he surrendered a power play tally to Mattias Janmark early in the second period. The Stars then went up 2-0 midway through the third period and never looked back. Allen has now dropped seven of his last eight decisions. He has a 19-17-2 record with a 2.72 goals-against-average and a .908 save percentage this season.
